Wed Jan 28 2026
Ben and Nur join Chrissy and Ryan from their new home of Cyprus to discuss their business, Copycat Cafe, a language learning app that helps users learn by copying native speakers rather than memorizing grammar and vocabulary like traditional apps. They share how they went from being friends for 11 years to starting a business together, and what it’s been like building a startup as partners. Since Ben began developing the app before Nur joined, they dive into the challenges and rewards of Nur leaving the corporate world to jump into startup life. This episode is a fun and inspiring listen about people building a business that fits the life they want to live.
